Hi,

We are implementing table partitioning feature to support Range and Hash partitions. Please find attached, the WIP patch and test-cases.

The syntax used conforms to most of the suggestions mentioned in http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2008-01/msg00413.php, barring the following:
-- Specification of partition names is optional. System will be able to generate partition names in such cases.
-- Sub partitioning

We are maintaining a system catalog(pg_partition) for partition meta-data. System will look-up this table to find appropriate partition to operate on.
System internally uses low-level 'C' triggers to row-movement.

Regards,
--
Kedar.
